The implementation of a Design of Experiment (DOE) strategy will allow you to optimize the development of your final product (texture, taste, quality, and yield) and assure consistency and reproducibility while reducing time to market. Implementing data analytics software can help you answer the following questions: Can you meet cost and quality metrics? What will be the approximate cost of your finished product? How will your current recipe react to raw material variations? What variables will most affect your finished product?

Ambr® 250 Modular is an innovative, easy-to-use, expandable benchtop system that incorporates 2 to 8 fully integrated single-use 100-250 mL mini bioreactors. It has a wide range of applications in process optimization and process characterization.
Cell-cultured meat production requires scalable multi-use or single-use bioreactors for every stage of development, from clone selection and process development to pilot and full commercial production, including perfusion processing. Scalable, multi-parallel systems based on your needs help you quickly move from the early stages of clean meat discovery and development to mass production. In addition to high throughput systems and scalability, you need an easy-to-use platform that will automate much of the process to control oxygen levels, pH, temperature, in addition to advanced PAT such as Raman, cell capacitance, off-gas concentrations and higher-level recipe control.
The Soxhlet method is a well-established procedure for extracting lipids from food samples. The method is relatively simple and can operate without constant supervision. It involves drying and grinding the food, then placing it in a special porous container called a thimble. The apparatus consists of three main parts: a flask, an extraction chamber, and a condenser. The process starts by heating the flask, which causes the solvent to evaporate and rise to the condenser. Here, it cools down and drips into the extraction chamber, where it permeates the sample in the extraction thimble, dissolving the lipids. These lipids are then carried back into the flask. The cycle repeats for 6 to 24 hours, depending on the sample and the extent of extraction required.
The Soxhlet method necessitates three distinct weight measurements: the initial weight of the sample, the weight of the empty flask, and the weight of the flask after the extraction is complete. These measurements are crucial for determining the mass of lipids extracted from the sample.
The Cellulose thimbles are more appropriate for the use in fast and reliable analytics in the field of food control and environmental monitoring. Commonly nuts & seeds, animal or plant butters, animal feeds, flour products, chocolate. In contrast to the glass fiber thimbles they will be typically used for fluid extraction. Glass fiber is recommended for filtration and the determination of dust and aerosols from air and gas streams. Their strength lies in:

It is important that the outer diameter (=inner diameter + 2x wall thickness) of the thimble fits into the extractor with a suitable pitch.
For example, an extractor with an NS 45/40 pitch (the 2nd number (40) is the inner diameter of the extractor) matches a slightly smaller inner diameter of the thimble, in this case 35mm ID.
And the length of the tube should be a little higher (0.5 - 1 cm) than the overflow siphon on the main body of the extractor, but lower than the bypass that goes into the main body above the siphon.
